> Key: OPENNLP-986
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OPENNLP-986
> Project: OpenNLP
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Reporter: Tommaso Teofili

> Fix For: 1.8.0
>
>
> {{NGramLanguageModel}} is already using [Stupid
> Backoff|http://www.aclweb.org/anthology/D07-1090.pdf] discounting when it
> contains more than 1M ngrams.
> However since the not very good performance of Laplace smoothing for smaller
> models, it'd be better to simply use Stupid Backoff in all cases.
